The central plot revolves around the love triangle between Soledade, Lúcio, and Dagoberto. Soledade, a country girl, a migrant during the drought, arrives at the sugar mill of Dagoberto, Lúcio's father, accompanied by several migrants: Valentim, her father, Pirunga, her foster brother, and others fleeing the drought. Lúcio and Soledade eventually fall in love.

Exploring the same themes, Jorge Amado from Bahia, Rachel de Queiroz from Ceará, Graciliano Ramos from Alagoas, and José Lins do Rego, also from Paraíba, developed the same critical and revolutionary fictional literature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159898767612,"sku":"9788503012997","price":79.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/61aeb1cb1eadf076e6827244cd4f7897_c544cd88-5db5-498d-ae5c-3d9b4b05a358.jpg?v=1778320142"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/collections\/jose-americo-de-almeida.oembed","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
